重点难点解析
1.‘Which shops are you going to, Mum?’ asked Alice.
艾丽斯问:“妈妈,你要去哪家商店?”
▲Mum, Mom比mother更口语化,Mum大都用于英国口语,而Mom大都用于美国口语。
①Mum, this is my friend, LiLei.妈妈,这是我的朋友李雷。
②Mum and Dad were mot at home.妈妈和爸爸都不在家。
注:mum指某一具体人时要大写。
2.I'm going to many different shops.我要去许多不同的商店。
▲different不同的,差异的,分离的。different作形容词,被它形容的名词常用复数形式:它的反义词same作形容词时,前面一般有定冠词,被形容的名词用单数。
①I have lived in four different houses in this city.我已在本市4所不同的房子里居住过。
②Are you all in the same school? 你们都在同一所学校吗?
③different的名词是difference作“差别”、“差异”、“不同之处”解的difference既可用作不可数名词,亦可用作可数名词。
①There's not much difference in price between the two computers.这两种计算机价格没多大差别。
②There are many differences between the two languages.这两种语言有许多不同之处。
3.Yes, I agree with you.是的,我同意。
▲agree with是指出自主观愿望的“赞成”、“同意”,既可接表人的名词(代词),也可接表物的名词(代词)或表动作的动名词:
①I agree with what they are doing.我赞同他们所干的事情。
②I agree with what you said.我赞同你所说的。
③I don't agree with a single word that you have said.你所说的每句话我都不赞成。
注:agree to是指“接受,认可”常常指并非出于主观愿望的“同意”,尤指不乐意或争论之后的同意。
①He wants me to give up my job when we're married, but I could never agree to that.
他要我结婚后放弃我的工作,但我绝不会同意。
②The headmaster agreed to the request for a half-term holiday.
校长同意期中放假的要求。
agree on指两方或多方就某事取得一致意见或达成协议,因此主语必须指双方或多方,或者涉及到另一方:
①You and I agree on this point.你和我在这一点上意见是一致的。
②We agreed on a date for next meeting.我们就下次会议的日期达成了协议。
4.I prefer the ones with the blue belt.我喜欢蓝带的牛仔裤。
▲这里ones是不定代词,它代替前面出现过的词,以避免重复。如替代的名词为复数,则用复数形式的替代词ones:
①‘Which shirt do you prefer?’‘This one.’“您喜欢哪件衬衫?”“这一件。”
②I don't have a pen. Can you lend me one? 我没有带钢笔,你能借给我一支吗?
注:a.上面所说的“one替代的是带不定冠词的名词”,并不是指在它前面出现的名词一定带有不定冠词,而是指它本身所在的位置上所替代的那个名词一定是带不定冠词的名词。
b.当one带有定冠词时(the one),它所替代的就是带定冠词的名词。
He is the one who heard you calling.他就是听到你叫的那个人。
